Application Note

One of PerkinElmer’s field sales engineers required help to develop a method for the solubilization of mouse liver that must be compatible with PerkinElmer’s MicroScint™-40 cocktail for sample counting on a PerkinElmer TopCount® microplate scintillation and luminescence counter. The researcher’s laboratory would use PerkinElmer’s 24-well PicoPlate™ . The major concerns included compatibility between the solubilizer and the specialty MicroScint cocktail, and identification of a bleaching agent for the colored liver samples. The isotope ofinterest was 90Y.
